Stars looking both Shockingly Off-trend and then Super-Stylish

Helena Bonham Carter arrived at the latest Golden Globes ceremony wearing (shock, horror) mismatched shoes! In light of this fashion faux pas, we take a look at a series of catastrophic outfits worn by the stars and ask: did their stylists go awol?
Tut-tut Helena Bonham Carter, a green and a red shoe on this season's red carpet? Why the Hollywood stylists must be reeling.
Whether Helena is onto a hot new trend here remains to be seen. Meanwhile, we take a look at the stars looking both shockingly off-trend and then super-stylish and ask, could their stylists have gone on holiday during these momentary lapses.

gyness Deyn: style shame

Agyness Deyn proves even supermodels get it wrong sometimes in this mismatched preppy outfit.

Agyness Deyn: super style

That's better, gliding down the runway in a fabulous white chiffon number - Agyness's outfit here is much more flattering.

Alexa Chung: style shame

Good grief, in these disastrous leather shorts Alexa Chung proves the latest trends don't necessarily suit everyone.

Alexa Chung: super style

Beautiful Alexa looks stylish and chic in a Burberry mac and simple black dress.

Lily Collins: style shame

A boy's school shirt with a shimmering gold mini? Amber Heard, a good combination this does not make.

Lily Collins: super style

A super-slinky, off-the-shoulder cocktail dress on the other hand, is just the ticket.

Björk: style shame

Never one to be coy on the fashion front, Björk excels herself again in this jacket and dress.

Björk: super style

So much prettier, Björk looks both elegant and feminine in this cream belted dress.

Blake Lively: style shame

Is Blake Lively taking a leaf out of Amber Heard's style book here? We're not loving the blue shirt dress and black skirt combo.

Blake Lively: super style

Blake gets it right in a sassy pink satin affair that shows off her feminine frame beautifully.

Claudia Schiffer: style shame

Oh dear, Claudia Schiffer gets caught out looking a little dowdy in this frumpy jumper and mismatched skirt.

Claudia Schiffer: super style

That's more like it! The supermodel we all know and love looks fabulous once more at a Dolce & Gabbana party.

Drew Barrymore: style shame

Cripes, Drew Barrymore blends cowgirl cool with mermaid chic and, alas, doesn't come up trumps.

Drew Barrymore: super style

Super cool Drew is back on form for the red carpet in this gorgeous gown, worn to Hollywood's Chinese Theatre.

Eliza Doolittle: style shame

Eliza Doolittle goes all gothic in this sultry affair. She seems to be missing part of her outfit though, namely the bottom half.

Eliza Doolittle: super style

We much prefer Eliza in this low-key and stylish black jumpsuit.

Fearne Cotton: style shame

Fearne Cotton has a Pirates of the Caribbean moment in this stripy floor-length shapeless dress.

Fearne Cotton: super style

But looks fabulous once more for the launch of her brand new clothing line at Very.co.uk.

Gwen Stefani: style shame

As a fashion designer herself, Gwen Stefani likes to be a little cutting edge. This eye-watering combo, however, could be a cut too far.

Gwen Stefani: super style

Thankfully back on the catwalk for her LAMB fashion range, Gwen comes up trumps in a sophisticated suit.

Helena Bonham Carter: style shame

The beautiful and daring Helena Bonham Carter flies in the face of convention at the Golden Globes ceremony and wears mismatched shoes on the red carpet.

Helena Bonham Carter: super style

Here's our Helen looking rather more elegant (and pregnant) at a film premiere.

Jessica Szohr: style shame

Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr gets it so wrong with too many mismatched items going on in one outfit.

Jessica Szohr: super style

Sexy, simple and sassy, Jessica proves you can't go wrong with black.

Kate Nash: style shame

Oh dear. Kate Nash hits the beach in ill-fitting shorts, an eye-wateringly bright top and tights (albeit of a fishnet variety).

Kate Nash: super style

Super cool Ms Nash is back on form in a sexy polka-dot blouse and pencil skirt.

Keira Knightley: style shame

Oh dear, far too many textures and clashing colours going on in one outfit here, Keira.

Keira Knightley: super style

This super elegant look is much more fitting for this svelte English rose.

Kelly Osbourne: style shame

Lawks a mercy, is Kelly Obsourne dressing up as Tavi Gevinson here? The hair, the coat, the dress, the shoes, all wrong.

Kelly Osbourne: super style

What a transformation! Kelly steals the show in this cute black dress designed to show off her fabulous hourglass figure. Sexy lady.

Ke$ha: style shame

Are these the loudest leggings on the planet, Ke$ha? Probably.

Kesha: super style

Fortunately the singer is back on form in a striking, skin-tight leather number.

Kourtney Kardashian: style shame

Kourtney Kardashian does her best impression of Little Blue Riding Hood but comes a cropper.

Kourtney Kardashian: super style

Looking so much more cute in a 1950s number, Kourtney also proves she knows a good accessory when she sees it.

Amber Heard: style shame

Amber Heard, leopard print and floral are two trends which should never be worn together.

Amber Heard: super style

Phew, Amber scrubs up nicely in a figure-hugging pastel number for the premiere of Salt.

Marina Lambrini Diamandis: style shame

Marina Lambrini Diamandis of Marina and the Diamonds makes a clear-cut case for why black lipstick should never be brought into fashion.

Marina Lambrini Diamandis: super style

Gorgeous and natural with a slick of red crimson on the lips is a much more becoming look for this star.

Nicole Richie: style shame

Oh dear, we're not quite sure where to start with this combo, Nicole Richie.

Nicole Richie: super style

We much prefer the ethereal look that you do so well.

Olivia Palermo: style shame

The normally achingly stylish Olivia Palermo makes a major fashion faux pas in this tie-dye lairy frock.

Olivia Palermo: super style

Looking sharp suited and booted is how we know her best. The classic look suits Olivia down to a T.

Paloma Faith: style shame

Hmmm, the oversized trousers, the clashing shirt and hat, this is a difficult one to put right, Paloma Faith.

Paloma Faith: super style

Smart chick: the classic black look shows off Paloma's red locks and still manages to look edgy without being over-the-top.

Rihanna: style shame

Rihanna has a Dorothy moment in her blue ankle socks and ruby red slippers.
moment

Rihanna: super style

And here she is looking stunning in a dress which not only shows off her fabulous frame but also accentuates those emerald eyes.

Sarah Jessica Parker: style shame

Cripes, Sarah Jessica Parker has a colourful moment on the streets of New York City.

Sarah Jessica Parker: super style

Fortunately the woman we know and love as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and The City is back on true fashionista form
